Thanks for the pics, guys. Silver hair! Now all is right in the world. A lot of people seem to be assuming that the robot bloke is going to be Ultron, but I suspect it's really just a stand-in for the mechanical bodies that Quick-Ass was running through in the concept art they released earlier. There are a number of other people in motion capture suits on set too, which suggests that there'll be a whole robot horde. Although I would quite like to see Ultron wearing a puffa jacket in the movie.

Cleverley is like a bloke at a wedding reception who wants to do a song with the band, but only knows two chords.

First play anywhere (maybe ) of the new single by The Black Keys.

Poster time.

Messi to the rescue for Barca, a clinical hat-trick. The penalties conceded by Madrid were so easily avoidable, particularly the second one. Iniesta had already lost the ball and there were others there for cover, but Alonso still felt the need to steam in, block him with his knee and give him a bit of a kick. A frustrating and unnecessary brain-freeze that cost his team the game. Also, in addition to Neymar being rubbish, Bale was rubbish. Depending on how their respective fixtures pan out between now and mid-May, the Barca-Atletico showdown on the final day could be bordering on apocalyptic.

It makes me feel awful to say it (and of course, there's still plenty of football still to be played between now and May), but if we go to Norwich and turn in a performance like that then truthfully, we don't deserve to be in this league. How on earth we can claim to be the sort of team that looks after the ball is beyond me, we were completely incapable of stringing two passes together. I'd like to see the Liverpool game in midweek called off on humanitarian grounds.

Awesome, always a pleasure to see new Eva.

I was surprised to hear that it's coming out on the 26th in the UK, as every poster and article appeared to list the release date as '4.4.14'. I guess I didn't get the memo that it had been brought forward.

Yeah, as silly as Hawkeye's purple Robin Hood gear and pointy mask would have looked on film, the 'X-Men movie' treatment they gave him last time around was just as much of a letdown in its own way. Curious really, because I thought the costume designers did rather well by everyone else.

Latest video from The War On Drugs. Kurt Vile meets Arcade Fire at their most Bruce Springsteen-ish.

Oh lord. I wonder how Giggsy will get on against the Bayern midfield?

And a new one from Tune-Yards.

'Guardians of the Galaxy' happened.

More new Lykke Li.

Here's some unreleased Johnny Cash. It's one of several cuts recently discovered by archivists at Legacy Records.

How nice of Galatasaray and Olympiakos to provide Chelsea and United with such easy passages into the last eight!

+Lyric video :wub2:

I was pulling for Pietro to have his silver hair too, although I can't imagine that it was ever really on the cards for Olsen to wear anything closely resembling Wanda's trademark costume. Whedon did say though that they'll be incorporating her headgear in some way, so my guess is that this isn't quite the final look we’ll see in the movie. Most likely, the designers give a few nods to the various outfits they've worn over the years, without making them too comic book-ish to work on film. On the bright side - Hulkbuster!

Agreed. Hiddleston was outstanding as Loki and I hope to see him again in 'Thor 3', but I don't think his presence is required in this one. The MCU is too big a place to build two Avengers movies around just one villain.

And Kraftwerk Orange, from 'The Mighty Boosh'.

Some great picks. Here's one I almost forgot about. The Be Sharps, Homer Simpson's barbershop quartet.

I've seen a lot of people alleging that EA pressured Bioware into fast-tracking 'ME3' for the so-called 'March Holiday Rush'. Not sure how much truth there is to that, though.

A number of news sites are reporting that Oscar winner Lupita Nyong'o is in talks for a role in the movie. www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/lupita-nyongo-meets-jj-abrams-688787 And yep, this is going to be the logo.

Obviously, no list like this would be complete without Spinal Tap. Terrifically entertaining tune from 'Inside Llewyn Davis'. By far the best Justin Timberlake has ever sounded. And finally, my personal favourite - Sex Bob-Omb from 'Scott Pilgrim vs. The World'. They're here to make you think about death and get sad and stuff.
